LIVE from Potomac Local News – Crow’s Nest Outdoor Adventure Court Case Update
We’re joined by Mark & Vivian McLeod, owners of Crow’s Nest Outdoor Adventure in Stafford County.
In the latest episode of the Potomac Local News podcast, host Uriah Kiser sat down with former Manassas City Councilwoman Lynn Forkell-Greene to unpack a whirlwind week in local politics and ongoing development issues facing the city.
Forkell-Greene, a longtime community advocate and active voice in Manassas affairs, provided insight into the surprise resignation of Delegate Michelle Maldonado and its ripple effects on city leadership.
A lot happened across Prince William County and the surrounding region this weekend, and we break it all down in this Sunday news update.
We start in Woodbridge, where a Democratic firehouse primary to select a nominee for the Woodbridge District seat on the Prince William County Board of Supervisors remains uncertified as a recount continues. Sources say the race between Muhammed “Sef” Casim and Pamela G. Montgomery was decided by about 30 votes, but party officials have not yet released official results.
Prince William County Supervisor Victor Angry says the county must continue approving new housing, even as residents raise concerns about traffic, schools, and infrastructure, arguing that Northern Virginia’s housing shortage leaves local leaders with few alternatives.
Angry, who represents the Neabsco District on the Prince William Board of County Supervisors, joined Potomac Local News founder and publisher Uriah Kiser for a wide-ranging interview focused on growth, long-term planning, and several major development projects now moving forward across the county.
As Fredericksburg leaders debate the future of data center development, longtime local observer and former city councilor Matt Kelly says the conversation is about more than land use or tax revenue. It’s about how decisions are made — and whether residents are being fully informed along the way.
Kelly shared his views during a recent interview with Potomac Local News, recorded in the wake of the Fredericksburg Planning Commission’s unanimous rejection of the proposed Gateway Data Center.
